Question

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
Explain these lines ​

Answer 1

Answer:

In this stanza, the poet describes what he gained from the experience.

Afterwards, when he was lonely or feeling “pensive,” he could remember the daffodils,

seeing them with his “inward eye,” and be content:

For oft, when on my couch I lie

In vacant or in pensive mood,

They flash upon that inward eye

Which is the bliss of solitude;

And then my heart with pleasure fills,

And dances with the daffodils.
